Sign up for games at BIRCON!
Hello fellow creative enthusiast,
The inaugural Berlin International RPG Convention is just under 10 days away! Now is the time to sign up for the game(s) you’d like to play there.
Our games are roughly divided into morning, afternoon, and evening slots, though individual start times vary a little, so as not to flood the bar when everything ends at once.
Aside from the games, we have panels and vendors all day long (see our website for details).
We’re inviting you to submit your game preferences via our dedicated web app, where you can rank your favorite games, or keep a slot free. At the end, we will assign players to games so as to satisfy the most preferences for the most people.
We guarantee at least one game per attendee (with the number of games and attendees that math checks out), but it could be multiple, depending on how the data shakes out.
Of course we can shuffle things around on the actual day too.
Please submit your preferences as soon as possible, but at the latest by end of Monday 14th.

Please note that although the web app has been tested, there is still a chance that we missed an edge case. Any problems with it, give us a shout.
Photography
Please be advised that photography and possibly filming will take place throughout the day. By attending, you acknowledge and consent to the possibility of being photographed or filmed. These visual recordings may be used for promotional materials, social media, press coverage, and other marketing purposes associated with BIRCON. If you have specific concerns or require certain accommodations regarding photography and filming, please inform us in advance. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us showcase the fun and exciting atmosphere of our convention!
Code of Conduct
To make the event a truly fun and inclusive experience for everyone, we ask you to adhere to our code of conduct.
Accessibility
The venue and its facilities are wheelchair accessible. If you need additional help, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Respect Thy Fellow Gamer
We are aware that our favorite gaming café is going to be bursting at the seams with all the gamers we’re cramming in on the day. For this reason, we’re asking you to bear the following in mind:
Please try and not be too loud; we know things can get heated and exciting, but let’s try and keep the overall volume manageable.
Coffees are delicious, but making them is noisy and takes time. If there is a queue at the bar, consider temporarily switching to a bottled beverage or a beer.
Raffle
Each attendee will be given a free raffle ticket upon arrival. During the event you’ll have the chance to buy more. At several points during the day, we’ll draw the winners in the panel room!
If you need to leave early, contact an organizer or helper to note down your details and raffle ticket numbers, and we’ll be in touch if you win.
Sickness
If you are feeling unwell on the day of the con, we would please ask you not to come to a packed venue. We’ll issue full refunds in this case.
No Longer Attending?
If for whatever reason you can no longer attend, please let us know as soon as possible. We’ll issue you a full refund, and offer the tickets to the next people on our waiting list.
Questions
For any advance questions, please email us. For questions on the day of the event, contact one of the organizers (we’ll be hanging out at the BIRCON Collective stand, or MCing panels), or one of our helpers (we’re still working on making them stand out.)
